„Interestingly, Mr. Schomer is also known to say, "Forget espresso at home!" A single shot of "True Espresso," as defined in the specialty coffee trade, requires a precise weight of finely ground coffee (7 grams) to be tightly packed (tamped) into a filter holder so that hot water (not-quite-boiling water, between 195 and 205 F -- 88 and 92 degrees C; boiling water or steam will utterly incinerate coffee's delicate essences), moving under at least nine atmospheres of pressure (at least 130 pounds per square inch -- or some unknown number of ergs, Newtons, Joules or kiloPascals), will take 20 to 30 seconds to extract exactly one fluid ounce of the magical liquid. When everything is working perfectly, espresso dribbles out of the filter in a heavy stream displaying the consistency of warm honey. The Italians call this “coda ti topo,” tail of the mouse.“

„(You are right, Mark!) I'll be going back there for sure, but after I make my way to Bauhaus, Uptown Espresso, Torrefazione (sp?) and a few others in Seattle. Thanks for the great article, Mark, and leading me to a real find in Hines Public Market Coffee.“
